科目名 Topic Studies I  Reading & Culture
担当教員 Verity, Deryn
授業の目的、または到達目標 To understand the structure of literary works through reading a wide variety of work and considering the readings both thematically and from our own literary practices.
授業の概要 In this class, students read selections from a wide variety of literature and make active connections between the readings and their own literacy practices. Students will read widely, and get experience in discussing thematic content, character analysis, cultural context and questions of the social roles of the text. They will write two reflection & response papers, and prepare a group research presentation for the end of the semester, including a written summary with APA references. The focus of the discussions will be on how reading changes our lives and the lives of people in our society.
